Electronic Music DJ Course

Electronic Music DJ Course & Performance | New York

Ever wondered what DJs are doing up in the booth? This is your chance to find out…literally, as those over 21 that make the grade (and no one hasn’t so far) will be invited to make their debut at an evening event in a club in Brooklyn!

Learn to DJ like a pro, and be club-ready on our fully comprehensive Electronic Music DJ course. You’ll learn on industry standard Pioneer Nexus equipment, which you’ll find at any respectable venue (or DJ school). Learning how to DJ should be FUN – not frustrating!

 

“I needed to brush up on some production software, so I called Garnish, as they have the best instructors” – Jamie Jones

 

Our Electronic Music DJ course is designed for beginners, as well as those who have already played around at home, who would like to learn real-world techniques on the latest professional equipment, taught by our expert roster of professional electronic music DJ instructors.

Our Testimonials

Great class, two really good instructors and nice people in the class. All around good vibes, learned a lot and had the opportunity to play.

My instructor was VERY helpful. It took me a few lessons to grasp the concept and he did not give up on me. He tried many different ways to explain the concept and was always patient and understanding. I felt stupid not knowing how to do what he was explaining, but he was very encouraging and motivating, that I would grasp it and I eventually did!

Vanessa Barnfather

The instructor was very knowledgeable and friendly. Small classes are great for individual attention and schooling is affordable compared to other private schools.

Aria Minx

Very informative. I had an incredible teacher who was patient, knowledgable and all round awesome. I came into the course not knowing much and finished with a gigantic pool of information and skills making me feel equipped to go out and enter the dj world.

Jeanne Kietzmann

I feel like I learned everything I could have possibly learned. i have no questions that are unresolved. i learnt more in this class than in a year of studying on my own. I just will miss the class.

Malik Sterling

The course is really straight forward and the instructor is the coolest ever! He can answer any question that you wanna know about DJing. Tell him how you wanna mix, he will show you easily.

Shark Titan

I would recommend your courses to a friend because I felt it was very professional and personal which I appreciate.
